  by Bill la Forge (http://freshmeat.net/users/laforge49/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 07:45

Database
Documentation
Information Management

easily configured and can be reorganized on-the-fly to meet ever changing
requirements. It includes a COW-based database, the Rolonics programming
paradigm, and semantic inferencing. 

Changes: PurgeHistory has been reworked. A bug in Rolon.free has been
fixed. The browse run command now handles full-line comments. 6 test
scripts have been added.

  by lemke (http://freshmeat.net/users/lemke/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 07:58

Database
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Database :: Front-Ends

About: Cego implements a relational and transactional database system with
support for the SQL query language. The current release contains the most
common database features for basic table manipulation and data retrieval.
Indexes, foreign keys, views, and stored procedures are also implemented.
Future releases (2.0 and above) will support a multi-node database concept
with log file shipping for an automatic database application failover.

Changes: Extensions to the JDBC interface. The statement extension has
been updated to return updated values. Multi-node extensions for
switchover have been added. Exception handling for stored procedures has
been added.

[003] - CLFSWM 0805 
  by Philippe Brochard (http://freshmeat.net/users/hocwp/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 17:06

Desktop Environment :: Window Managers

About: CLFSWM (Common Lisp FullScreen Window Manager) is an X11 window
manager where windows are almost always fullscreen maximized or tiled. It
can be driven using the keyboard alone or with the mouse. 

Changes: This version is a major update of the CLFSWM concept: there is no
more reference to workspaces. CLFSWM is a tree of frames and windows. A
frame can contain some windows or some other frames with a different
layout (tile, tile left, etc.). There is no more need for the pager: you
are in the pager. Just enter in a frame to make it fullscreen maximized
and zoom its contents.

  Sun, May 18th 2008 23:24

Software Development :: Interpreters
Software Development :: Libraries

About: Ctalk provides object oriented programming features, like classes,
methods, operator overloading, and inheritance to otherwise standard C
programs. You can use only a few objects and classes in a program, or you
can write programs entirely in Ctalk. The package provides a translator
from Ctalk source code into C for compilation and a library that provides
run-time support for class objects. The preprocessor, ctpp, is also
available separately, and the package includes sample programs and
documentation. 

Changes: This release adds the ability to use simple compound messages in
Ctalk statements, the AssociativeArray class, and more compatibility
fixes.

XML/JSON/HTML. There is a UI for all operations, so no Java coding is
necessary. Deleted or updated records in database can be synchronized
also. 

Changes: Regular expression search has been added. Time-based ranking has
been added for sortBy=_relevance_ during searching. Reserved Words have
been added to bypass analyzers. Javadoc for writing JSP templates has been
fixed. Time-based ranking has been improved. Duplication deletion
performance has been improved. A bug in reserved words with the analyzer
has been fixed. Possible hanging during shutdown has been fixed. This

[011] - Distributed Internet Archiving Program 0.3.3 alpha 
  by D Brasher (http://freshmeat.net/users/db2/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 23:22

System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Mirroring
System :: Installation/Setup

About: DIAP is a set of Bash shell scripts to set up a system using three
backup nodes either between sites (e.g. between offices and homes) or over
WANs. The application provides a decentralized, self-contained and managed
storage utility. The emergence of a DVTL (Distributed Virtual Tape
Library) is the end result. Nodes can be dedicated to storage or used for
existing services over unused bandwidth. The scripts are a toolkit to help
users set up their own project, and to help the writer improve the system
and work in user space over SSH. The system is designed for robustness and
will be re-written in Perl.

Changes: Structural changes were made to match the architecture design
refinements.

Software Development :: Documentation

About: Doxygen is a cross-platform, JavaDoc-like documentation system for
C++, C, Objective-C, C#, Java, IDL, Python, PHP, VHDL, and Fortran.
Doxygen can be used to generate an on-line class browser (in HTML) and/or
an off-line reference manual (in LaTeX or RTF) from a set of source files.
Doxygen can also be configured to extract the code-structure from
undocumented source files. This includes dependency graphs, class diagrams
and hyperlinked source code. This type of information can be very useful to
quickly find your way in large source distributions. 

Changes: A number of new options have been added to further allow fine
tuning of the generated output. A large number of bugs have been fixed.

number of instructions are used to invoke all calls.

Changes: Build system improvements. SCons support has been added. man page
dyncall(3) has been added. There are documentation updates and minor fixes.

[056] - The Spiffy Framework 0.05 
  by Dr. Kasper Graversen (http://freshmeat.net/users/kbilsted/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 15:02

Documentation
Education
Software Development

About: The Spiffy Framework is a collection of well-tested and often used
helper methods and utility classes. Such methods and classes solve
existing and recurring practical problems, and remedy annoying features of
the Java language or its frameworks. The value of this framework is not
only the code, but also the ideas for solutions to the problems. The goals
are to collect and centralize "utility abstractions", and to serve as a
repository of knowledge/smart ideas for programmers to learn.

Changes: This release adds keySet() to TwoDHashMap and ThreeDHashMap. It
adds getAs2d() to ThreeDHashMap returning a TwoDHashMap. It adds
spiffy.log4j.LoggerHelper for a consistent way to get Logger instances.

switching disabled. 

Changes: This release adds slight build system changes to help
distributors. The number of failed authentication tries is now displayed
on exit.

[065] - zzuf 0.11 
  by Sam Hocevar (http://freshmeat.net/users/sammy/)
  Sun, May 18th 2008 17:09

Security
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
Software Development :: Testing

About: zzuf is a transparent application input fuzzer. Its purpose is to
find bugs in applications by corrupting their user-contributed data, which
frequently comes from untrusted sources on the Internet. It works by
intercepting file and network operations and changing random bits in the
program's input. zzuf's behavior is deterministic, making it easier to
reproduce bugs. 

Changes: This release includes a randomizer with improved bit coverage and
support for very low fuzzing ratios (down to one bit on a whole DVD). It
also reimplements the dup and dup2 functions, as well as the glibc
unlocked stdio functions found in an increasing number of applications.
